Fraser’s major works include two heroic bronze equestrian statues titled ''The Arts of Peace'', designed for the entrance to the Rock Creek and Potomac Parkway, behind the Lincoln Memorial.
The pair was a companion to sculptor Leo Friedlander's ''The Arts of War'', installed immediately to the south at the east end of Arlington Memorial Bridge. The groups had been designed in the 1930s but were not cast until the 1950s, because of a shortage of metals during World War II.
Fraser was a member of the National Academy of Design, the [[National Sculpture Society]], and the [[Architectural League of New York]]. His numerous awards and honors include election to the [[National Institute of Arts and Letters]] and gold medal from the Architectural League in 1925. He served on the [[U.S. Commission of Fine Arts]] in Washington, D.C., from 1920 to 1925.
